Research In Motion

For people who check facts
Research In Motion Limited (RIM) are the makers of the BlackBerry Personal Digital Assistant / wireless communication device.

While including the usual PDA applications (calendar, etc.) as well as cell phone capabilities on newer models, the BlackBerry is primarily known for its ability to send and receive email anywhere it is in coverage, as well as a built in keyboard optimized for "thumbing", or using only your thumbs to type. System navigation is primarily accomplished by the thumbwheel, a scrolling wheel with a 'click' function, located on the right side of the device. Specialty models also incorporate a two-way radio.

RIM is headquartered in Waterloo, Ontario, and are sponsors of RIM Park, in the north of the city.
